was that it was too brief. That was good

appealed the case, l.. II. Titus appearing for
tho plaintiff.
Our village was the scene of another bur-
glary last Friday night. Unlike the usual
outcome of such affairs, the villains were
caught at their nefarious work and captured.
About midnight, Mr.. II. w. Stickney was
aroused from his slumbers by an unusual
racket and, going to his window, he saw two
men standing near l. w. Aliens store who,
after listening and watching few moments,
entered by the front door. Mr.. Stick
ney went there, saw that they had cracked
tho safe and told them to stay where
they were or he would shoot them full of
holes-a feat he couldn't we'll accomplish, as
he was unarmed. The burglars replied by
firing at him and rushed out. MIR. Stickney
obtained assistance and started after them,
beng enabled to track them ON the snow.
They started up the track toward Bangor. A
train going north soon afterwards, some
parties went to Bangor, catching sight of the
miscreants while on the way. Under Sheriff
Camp was notified and he, with assistants,
started out and soon met and captured the
scoundrels. Stickney and his party followed
the track up to the place of capture. They
were taken back TO Hartford and arraigned
before Esq. Mortimer, where they waived
examination and, in default of 81 800 bonds
each, we're committed to jail to await trial.
They gave their names as James Kelly and
Peter Farrow. They are evidently old hands
at the business. The business men of Hart
ford propose to purchase an elegant revolver
and present the same TO MIR. Stickney as
we'll merited token of their appreciation of
his bravery and persistence in following tho
burglars. He certainly deserve it. Few
men would have done what be did and, We
understand, he snys he wouldn't like TO
chance it again.

MIcHIGAN sheep breeders, in convention
at Lansing, sat down hard on the presidents
proposition TO reduce the tariff on wool.
The prevailing impression was that such a
policy would result in the utter ruin OF the
wool industry and in great depreciation of
the value of farm property. The president
has succeeded in stirring up strong oppo-
sition among the agriculturists of the
country, an opposition that will make itself
felt to the detriment of his future presiden-
tial aspirations, when the farmers get an
other chance at the ballot-box.

The farmers of Ohio need make NO
mistake about what Foraker meant in
his special message in regard to in
creasing taxes on lands. He meant
Just what he said. He recommended
that the valuation of real estate bs in
creased because in his opinion it does
not pay enough taxes. He said in OF
feet that the state must have moi Q
money aud that unless real estate is
valued higher the state can't get mon.
ey enough forneeessary expenses. AL
the farmers need do to convince them
selves of this is to read the message
